How have Swedes changed their behavior during the COVID-19 crisis? A new research project from the Stockholm School of Economics offers insights into mobility and hoarding over the past – and coming – weeks.

The new research project, initiated by Professor Sara Rosengren and Assistant Professor Erik Wetter at the Stockholm School of Economics (SSE), combines data and insights from companies in sectors such as retail, telecom, and media in order to provide new insights into public behavioral dynamics. The main focus is on mobility, consumption, and hoarding behaviors e.g. bulk buying.
